About us

Founded by textile people, in the town that knits for the world.

From Tiruppur, India, we speak as makers. Since 1990 our promise has been ownership — from design room to finished carton.

Company overview

One roof was never a slogan. It was the plan.

Founded in 1990 by textile enthusiasts and headquartered in Tiruppur, India, we have evolved into a vertically integrated manufacturer and exporter of knitted and woven garments. Today we unite fine craftsmanship, cutting-edge technology and eco-smart processes to deliver fashion that feels as good as it looks.

By bringing the journey under one roof, we align craft, technology and responsible practice to deliver garments you can launch with confidence. Expect clear timelines, steady quality, and partners who stand behind every stitch.

In apparel manufacturing, reliability turns complexity into competitive advantage. We align skilled people, modern machinery and clear processes — end to end. Disciplined checkpoints and transparent communication keep quality consistent and timelines firm. Responsible operations — safe workplaces, certified inputs, traceable lots — build lasting confidence.

Commit. Deliver. Repeat.

Three words that describe most of what happens here. The rest is machinery, and people who know how to run it.

What we are for

Mission, vision and method.

Mission

Make garments you can trust — made responsibly, delivered reliably.

Quality you can feel, timelines you can plan, and standards that respect people and the planet.

Vision

Be the partner brands do not have to manage.

Own every stage, solve fast, communicate clearly — season after season, without being chased.

Method

Vertical integration as a discipline, not a boast.

Every handoff we remove is a delay, a defect and an argument we never have to have.

Founders' message

We build trust before we make garments.

“Since 1990 in Tiruppur, we’ve grown by keeping our word on quality you can feel, timelines you can plan, and standards that respect people and the planet. Vertical integration is our discipline: own every stage, solve fast, communicate clearly. For clients who value a partner that listens, thinks with you, and stands behind every stitch — you’ll find that commitment here, season after season.”

The journey

Thirty-five years, one direction.

Each step below removed a vendor from the chain and put another stage under our own control.

  1. 1990

    A dyeing house in Tiruppur

    Founded by textile enthusiasts with a single conviction: better technology makes better cloth, and better cloth makes better garments.

  2. 2000s

    Knitting comes in-house

    Circular knitting is added so fabric can be engineered for a style rather than bought off the shelf.

  3. 2010s

    Finishing, and a greener plant

    Stentering and compacting complete the fabric chain. Zero liquid discharge and offsite solar follow.

  4. 2025

    European dyeing technology

    A 500 kg Benninger FabricMaster soft-flow machine — the first European-technology dyeing machine on our floor — is commissioned in March.

  5. 2026

    Garmenting, and the world

    With the garmenting unit fully operational, Lucky Clothing Company takes the group’s cloth to export markets as finished product.

Where our garments go

Seven markets, and counting.

Brands rely on us for transparent communication, dependable lead times and end-to-end ownership of the value chain — from yarn through final packing.
